Chapter 273: Chapter 273 Your Consideration is Really Cheap
After hearing Cheng Su’s words, Qi Taiguo also put down his chopsticks and looked over. Cheng Su was glaring at him, clearly demanding an explanation, and his eyebrows furrowed momentarily.
"What, angry with you? It’s nothing, eat up, it’s all getting cold." Upon seeing Cheng Su’s chin become pointed, Qi Taiguo suppressed the anger inside him and said.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Su’s expression grew even worse. "If you’re not angry, then what is this? You’re so stiff, as if I owe you something. The moment I come back, you give me that look."
"How am I giving you a look?" Qi Taiguo was getting a bit impatient.
Cheng Su was taken aback.
Realizing his tone was harsh, Qi Taiguo wanted to make amends, but then he thought, it was clearly her fault, why should he apologize?
"I’m full, I’m going to take a shower." Qi Taiguo said irritably, pushing away his meal.
"Qi Taiguo, stop right there!" Cheng Su called out to him.
Qi Taiguo turned around: "What now?"
"If you’re unhappy about something, let’s talk about it. Don’t put on that face; I’m tired enough as it is, I don’t want to guess what’s on your mind!" Cheng Su was truly exhausted, with so much going on at the company, and now she had to guess his thoughts too? She didn’t have the energy or the time for that.
And her nature, deep down, was actually quite tough. Seeing Qi Taiguo act like this not only stifled her but also made her uncomfortable.
Why couldn’t they just lay everything on the table?
Little did she expect, when Qi Taiguo heard her say this, his face darkened and he said, "You’re tired, but am I not tired? Besides, your tiredness, it’s all self-inflicted. If you hadn’t started this company and just kept to running a small restaurant, would you be this tired?"
Cheng Su’s eyes widened in disbelief: "Do you even hear what you’re saying?"
Qi Taiguo pressed his lips together.
"You agreed to start this company with Ning Ge, and you gave quite a bit of support. Now you say this, doesn’t your conscience hurt?" Cheng Su was utterly astounded.
When they had initially discussed starting the company, they had talked it over thoroughly. He had agreed to and supported everything she did. And now he was saying it was all her fault. Whose face was he slapping?
Her reproach made Qi Taiguo’s face heat up; he felt that he had gone too far. But supporting her didn’t mean he agreed with her neglecting their home, did it?
"I support you, but can’t you consider my feelings too? I’ve been training all day in the army, I come home to a cold stove, not even hot water to drink. In other people’s homes, the delicious smell of dinner is wafting through the air by now; what about you?" Qi Taiguo was also feeling aggrieved.
Cheng Suxin thought, so that’s it. He was upset because she came back late and wasn’t able to cook him a meal.
"No wonder, you’re blaming me for not taking good care of you. Qi Taiguo, don’t you know the company has just started? Don’t you know I work on documents until the wee hours of the night? When you’re on a mission, I understand and support your work. But you, can’t you show me a little understanding?" Cheng Su scoffed coldly, "If you wanted a full-time housewife who quietly stays at home to take care of her husband and children, I’m sorry, I can’t do that!"
She, Cheng Su, has never been one to conform. She couldn’t do just taking care of a husband and children, revolving her life solely around them!
Being ironically retorted by her left Qi Taiguo with an ugly expression. "So you’re being unreasonable now? When have I ever not supported or understood you? I just want you to pay a bit more attention, home is the most important, isn’t it?"
Home is most important, but was this his way of being understanding?
"Because I wasn’t home in time to cook you a hot meal, you get angry at me, is that how you show your understanding? Your understanding is really cheap!" Cheng Su let out a cold laugh.
Qi Taiguo glared at her with heavy eyes, his lips pressed into a thin
